Liberals want to raise the minimum wage from $5.15 to $6.75 (over 3 years). The 1st raise in a decade. This would effect roughly about 5.8% of the workforce. Mostly women. A raise would still keep most of them below the poverty level.

The conservatives want to make this law contingent on whether they can make the Estate Tax permanent. The Estate Tax will exempt $5 million of an individual's estate ($10 million per couple) from any taxes at all. This would effect about 7,500 of the wealthiest families in America. Roughly 6%.

Some theorize the minimum raise hike will hurt the economy. I think millionaires already have enough loopholes & tax shelters to prevent them from paying their fair share of taxes now. Many of them pay no taxes at all, or very little. It has passed in the House. It now goes to the Senate. What do you think and why?

If we are all doing what we think is good to raise our children, and live peacibly, why do people from other countries hate people in the United States? I'm talking about citizens, not our president. I wouldn't want that job right about now. He has many things that he has to try and figure out, without stepping on anyone's toes. How can America be so hated by everyone else?

You gotta stop making assumptions. I asked, what has Bush done for you lately, and I got people questioning my patriotism, and stupid people questioning my age (cheeky chic...this is for you!).

Dammit, I'm in my 30's, and I served my country (US Navy) for 6 years. For some conservative punk to question my support for this country is presumptuous. If you want to debate, that is fine, get to know me...but don't question my patriotism.

Saying "YES SIR" is not being patriotic. IT IS BEING FOOLISH. I won't stop you from supporting the president, it is America after all. But use your head.

And stop making assumptions. When you don't know who somebody is, how the heck can you question their patriotism? That burns me up. I love my country, and I would support a president that makes logical and thoughtful choices, regardless of party.

To all those who have served in the past, present, and the future, I say thank you for your commitment to helping keep America great.

Nostradamus said that there would be 3 anti-christs. the first being naploean, the second being Hitler, and the third being "Mabus". Could George W. Bush be Mabus? He's trying to take over the world like hitler and napolean but he's doing it in a different way.

Apparently Hezbollah fired more than a dozen rockets into Israel this morning and only 5 people got slightly injured.

how does Israel (spit, bastards) respond - murdering 22 children and babies and more than 40 adults who were trapped in a building in a small town. I have seen Young girls sighning Israeli Bombs and shells before they are fired off to kill innocent Lebonese people.
